Great locomotive Mark. Now you need some Rivarossi full length passenger cars to go behind it! Miketg

There are four choices for Continental European passenger coaches...

1st choice: German coaches with 10 or 12 compartment windows from past millenium Rivarossi plastic mold production in full length scale 600 millimeters long (approx. 23", you need O-72 or better O-80 curves) http://www.tcawestern.org/rivarossi.htm

2nd choice: German coaches with 9 compartment windows from past millenium Lima plastic mold production in reduced length 530 millimeters long (approx. 20", , you need O-54 or better O-63 curves)

 

3rd choice: Orient Express coaches from modern MTH plastic mold production in full length 540 millimeters long (approx. 21", according to catalog information you need O-72 curves) equipped with  Lionel/MTH or ACE/Darstaed or Lenz couplers alternatively (https://mthtrains.com/sites/de...ction/20ps11680i.pdf)

4th choice: quasi-Eurofima-type coaches from my own modern tinplate production in reduced length 420 millimeters long (approx. 17", have been tested on O-72 curves) equipped with multiple coupler variations (Lima/Rivarossi or Lionel/MTH or ACE/Darstaed or whatever), as you can see on the following videos...
